## Abstract **Summary:** The microwave (MW)‐assisted lipase‐catalyzed ring‐opening polymerization of __ε__‐caprolactone in boiling solvents was investigated for the first time. In case of boiling toluene or benzene the MW‐assisted reaction proceeded significantly slower compared to oil bath heating
